About the event
Join Becky Baumwoll (Broken Box Mime Theater, Artistic Director) for an exploration of the audience's imagination as an artistic medium! In this three-hour workshop, Becky will first introduce Broken Box's style of modern mime, one based in naturalism and developed through collaborative process. How do we create invisible worlds, and what are the implications of working this way? How can this practice be applied to text-based performance and improvisational forms? We'll then expand the toolbox, playing with body language, ensemble stage picture, cinematic visuals, and transformations. All levels of experience welcome, whether you are a professional in physical theater or this is your first foray!
Format: The workshop will mix speaking and non-speaking instruction, and include multiple opportunities for group reflection. There will be a mixture of large group and small group work. The workshop is designed to have an inclusive, joyful, curious culture.
Access: All abilities welcome! Suggested ages 12+. Caregivers…
